The patagonia ultralight down jacket is the hoodless version of the patagonia ultralight down hoody that we did a more complete review of.
Patagonia ultralight down jacket men s review.
The ultralight down hoody 9 6 ounces in medium is the next lightest down jacket we have tested after the mountain hardwear hooded ghost whisperer 7 5 ounces in size medium.
The ultralight down jacket combines 800 fill power traceable down goose down traced from parent farm to apparel factory to help ensure the birds that supply it are not force fed or live plucked with a superlight 15 denier 100 nylon pertex quantum shell for a lightweight toasty warm down jacket.
We also really like the blue color.
The down hoody stood out for being incredibly light and compact and the down jacket is even lighter.
As for the actual amount of down in the jacket the ultralight hoody has 3 52 ounces the most in our ultralight category.
The patagonia ultralight down hoody has one of the better looking hoods and it cinches down to keep out the wind.
The down is also 100 traceable which means patagonia can show all the down used in the jacket is from birds that were not force fed or live plucked.
